The 1909-S V.D.B. Lincoln penny is one of the most sought-after collectible coins from the United States, featuring a "Wheat" reverse. It was minted in San Francisco and is notable for its high demand among numismatists due to its limited mintage and the presence of designer Victor David Brenner's initials ("V.D.B.") on the reverse. This coin symbolizes the early 20th-century transition to modern American coinage and holds significant historical value. Its rarity and condition greatly influence its market value, making it a highlight in many coin collections.
